Sega bringing Crack Down and ESWAT to Virtual Console


Sega announced today that they're bringing two Genesis games to the Wii's Virtual Console: Crack Down and ESWAT: City Under Siege. We know that you probably are reading the post because of the headline, so let us burst that bubble first: It's not that Crackdown. This is an entirely different game, sort of a hybrid between Smash TV, Gauntlet and a game that only uses 1/4 of the screen to display the action. (No, seriously, go look.)

Then there's ESWAT, which is Robocop with a jet pack. ... Well, Robocop with a jet pack and a rocket launcher, which, objectively, sounds like the best game ever made. We're not sure when these will be available, so keep an eye out on Mondays.
